Free Cronuts Today to Anyone Who Can Find the Cronut Rabbit

Get free cronuts today just by following Ansel's rabbit around Manhattan

To celebrate the release of his new cookbook, Dominique Ansel will be giving out free cronuts and cookie shots in different locations throughout Manhattan today from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. The event is called Follow the Rabbit, and Ansel’s team will be placing the special stuffed cronut rabbit in eight locations throughout Manhattan attached to a celebratory orange balloon. They will be revealing each of the locations where you can get a free cronut or cookie shot on Instagram or Twitter. So be sure to follow the hashtag #Followtherabbit to join the fun.

Supplies are limited, but if you get there on time, each participant will receive one free cronut and one free cookie shot. The first rabbit sighting just happened outside of the 23rd St. subway station near the Flatiron Building. Where will he hop to next? Follow them here and here
